description

IBM DataStage on Cloud Pak for Data 5.4.0.0 is affected by an access-control flaw involving shared Redis data. An unauthenticated remote attacker able to reach the vulnerable service may modify cached flow settings for other tenants, undermining isolation and credential protections.

mitigation

Restrict unauthenticated network access to the affected DataStage service and its shared Redis deployment until IBM provides remediation guidance. Monitor IBM's security bulletin and upgrade to a vendor-provided fixed release when available.
